‘Annan Thampi’ leads by a mile
IndiaGlitz [Saturday, April 26, 2008]
Finally after some weeks which registered just average collections, this was the one that gave strong positive signals to the box office. A couple of films that were released for this Vishu, made some great collections, with the summer holiday season. Leading the list, as expected is ‘Anna Thampi'. 
1. ‘Annan Thampi' - It's ‘Annan Thampi’ everywhere. The movie recorded the best of the first week collections ever registered for a Mollywood movie. Grossing around three crores in just eight days is not a mean thing for a Malayalam cinema. With the larger amounts it had fetched as channel rights and by selling out rights, the movie will move into profits even from its week two. The film already has become the biggest hit in Malayalam, according to the first week collections from its 75 centres. But the collections of this mass entertainer are slowly dwindling in centers where it was released in multiple centers. As of now, it remains in its no.1 slot.
2. ‘Innathe Chintha Vishayam' - This Sathyan movie is remaining steady in Box office especially in the bigger cities. The movie, even after the good publicity campaigns, is showing a drop in collections in lesser centers. Redundant script lines, mediocre music, less newspaper publicity and not so appealing direction are in the way of the film, becoming a big hit. Anyway, will manage to become a hit and many in the trade believe that the film will get a long run, with the marketing capabilities of Ashirwad cinemas and central pictures.
3. 'Mulla' - This Dileep movie has invited fresher interest in its fourth week and fared better than expected in the last weekend. Expected to become an average earner primarily due to its better collections in bigger cities and the loyal vacation audiences. All the songs of the movies set to music by Vidyasagar, are the chart toppers.
4. ‘Cycle’- This Johnny Antony movie registers average collections, last week. Due to low print publicity, this movie, infact the first major hit of the year may find it difficult to reach the hundred days mark.
5. ‘Katha Parayumpol’ -This Mammootty -Sreenivasan starrer now in its 125 days, still holds strong in the fifth position. The film registers average collections in metros.
